Saints have no intention of selling international midfielder

Southampton have no intentional of shipping summer signing Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg, despite his slow start to life in the Premier League, according to former Danish international Moren Bruun.

The former Bayern Munich youngster, who joined the Saints from the German giants over the summer for a fee of around £12m, has found it hard to hold down a place in Claude Puel’s side so far in his time at the club.

“Pierre-Emile Højbjerg’s development has stalled. He has not moved on this season and in the national team has been overtaken by Thomas Delaney and Lasse Schøne. He has plenty of ball contact and lacks an end product.”
